Our client in Auburn Hills, MI is looking for a Powertrain Engine Calibration Engineer - Intermediate. This is a contract position.

What You Will Do:

Torque Calibration Engineer. 

The Hybrid Electric Vehicle Calibration Engineer is responsible for leading calibration development of an assigned function items in the Hybrid Control Processor (HCP) from first dyno, into early mule vehicle to production on the next generation of xHEV Propulsion Systems. The scope of responsibility spans the application and optimization of control systems into production for xHEV Propulsion Systems. The calibrator will document and justify all HCP calibration changes through rigorous development and test plans. The calibrator will present and justify changes to lead calibrator and Sr. management as appropriate. The calibrator will participate or lead the Center of Excellence team for their functional areas. They will review any new calibrations in their area, work with other calibrators and controls engineers to ensure initial values for new calibrations are correct by reviewing software change requests in the new release (performed at each new SW release). They will coordinate calibration merges with other functional leads. They have production release responsibility for the HCP SW and Calibrations. They will support dyno commissioning and first-run activities. They will work closely with HCP controls team to ensure features are working sufficiently and efficiently. They will provide training to all new calibration engineers and/or anyone else needing training on the operation of ePT vehicles and controls. They will support trips and report activities for Sr. Management. They will work with the CoE teams to ensure best practices are followed.
